Is Andrew Garfield Dating Monica Barbaro? Oscars Party Sparks Romance Speculation!

Andrew Garfield had everyone’s spidey senses tingling after the 2025 Oscars.

At the 97th Academy Awards, where the actor served as a presenter, speculation about a budding romance with Monica Barbaro, a nominee for Best Supporting Actress, intensified when they were spotted exiting the Vanity Fair Oscars party together.

Following the ceremony on March 2nd at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, Andrew, elegantly dressed in a traditional black tuxedo, stood beside Monica who sparkled in a gown without straps and covered in beads. This actress received a nomination for her role, along with Timothée Chalamet, in the biopic about Bob Dylan titled “A Complete Unknown”. This production garnered a total of eight nominations at this year’s event.

Before the Oscars, their relationship sparked dating rumors with another awards season outing. On the night before the 2025 Golden Globes in January, Andrew (aged 41) was seen with his arm around Monica (aged 34), as they posed together at a W Magazine party held at Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood.

Back in February, I, an over-the-moon fan, found myself caught up in the buzz when the dynamic duo, Andrew and Monica, graced the scene at a performance of Jonathan Bailey’s play, “Richard II,” in London’s West End. In a video shared on the old platform, Twitter (X), these two fashionably casual individuals, clad in sweaters and ball caps, seemed to engage in a conversation as the theatre lights dimmed.

However, even though the series of public appearances has sparked conversations among many, Andrew, who was romantically involved with Emma Stone in the past and recently rumored to be dating Kate Tomas, has expressed his preference for maintaining privacy regarding his personal life beyond the screen.

In a conversation with Bustle back in 2021, I shared that I’ve deliberately kept myself out of the limelight. Professionally, this setup works well for me, but on a personal level, I value and protect my privacy fiercely.

More recently, the We Live In Time actor doubled down on his stance.

He shared that he would never discuss his private life with anyone, nor confirm or deny any information about it. This was communicated to Esquire magazine back in October, and he emphasized that this remains his stance – “always.
